<p>it’s so gross when i go to guys’ dorms and there’s hair ALL over the bathroom sink because some guy forgot to rinse it off after shaving…sooooo gross.</p>
<p>
yeah… Really nasty.</p>
<p>I am 18 and only have to shave once or twice a week. </p>
<p>Blond facial hair + slow hair growth = rare shaving.</p>
<p>It’s nice not to have to shave every day, but I’d kinda like to get a goatee or something after HS.</p>
<p>haha this is the most brilliant thread on CC
I shave every alternate day and that’s what I’m going to continue to do in college
what can I say…I’m a hairy guy…I could easily turn that into an advantage: I’m manly.</p>
<p>Does anyone know the best way to get/maintain a 5 O’clock shadow? Same with maintaining some stubble…I’m not sure what the best way/how to do it is…</p>
<p>i heavily dislike facial hair</p>
<p>JC-- get a set of electric clippers like you’d use for a buzz cut. Apply to face. Instant, constant shadow.</p>
<p>I connect. I still shave every two days to keep the face clean because I don’t like the shape of a no-shave beard, but I’m rocking a nice face framed with hair.</p>
<p>5 o’clock shadow makes you look lazy not manly IMO</p>
<p>modest whats a good brand of electric clippers? I haven’t been able to find one…</p>
<p>Conair has worked great for me.</p>
<p>I’ve been looking at these one <a href=“http://trimmers.wahl.com/[/url]”>http://trimmers.wahl.com/</a> </p>
<p>I’m not sure what specific one I should get though, they all seem the same haha. Do you have a link to the clippers you use? Can’t find anything…</p>
<p>I think this is it:

<p>I personally am forced to shave every morning; it’s so bad that by several hours after shaving, I already have a 5 o’clock shadow again. I hate it. I usually use a Gilette Fusion razor in the sink before I shower, but recently since the blades are so expensive I’ve switched to generic disposable ones.</p>
<p>Does anyone have advice on how to get rid of facial hair more efficiently? Are there creams or something that works? Electric razors don’t work well on me; they don’t get a close enough shave.</p>
<p>I still prefer the clean shaven look. Now I shave every morning with a Schick Quattro Titanium razor, which I love because it’s nice and light compared to the bulky Gillete Fusion.</p>
<p>@modest- What settings would you use? I’m not sure because of it being a hair clipper lol. Sorry, I’m a pain in the rear =]</p>
<p>Meh, I like the 5 o’clock shadow look, or a stubble look, other than that clean shaven for me!</p>
<p>

<p>You should shave with the grain and then against the grain for the closest shave you’re gonna get with a razor. That should suffice. Besides that, waxing and laser hair removal are your other options, but I don’t think you have to go there. </p>
<p>Hopefully you are using shaving cream. You should be putting warm water on your face then letting the cream sit there for 45-60 seconds before shaving.</p>
<p>And personally, I buy a whole new razor with 2 cartridges for $10 rather than spending over $15 for 4 cartridges because it’s easier to pay for and I find it more appealing to buy a new razor than a pack of cartridges.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s what I’m doing, and it still grows a shadow within a few hours. I’ll try letting the cream sit a while first, though; thanks for that tip.</p>
<p>this thread makes me kind of glad all i have to do is trim and it stays sort of rugged for a few days and then trim again. its not as thick as i’d like it, but its low maintenance.</p>
<p>I enjoy shaving my facial hair other than it is time consuming. I like the look and how it feels afterwards.</p>
<p>rockin 5 o clock shadow, a polo shirt, some designer jeans</p>
<p>maybe a beret</p>
<p>so rugged</p>
